DUI/DWI clients who are taking part in drug and alcohol rehab programs are generally there by their own choice, but more often than not in alcohol and drug rehabilitation as part of a mandated court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, particularly initial offenders might be required to go to rehabilitation either instead of other penalties or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from treatment instead of being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the court system. It has been proven that individuals who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have much better odds of staying out from the courts than those people who are fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In drug treatment facilities DUI/DWI clients can ascertain why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to be able to address these issues and find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances in their lives which trigger their drug abuse. This will certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be impacted by their drug abuse should they drive while intoxicated later on. It is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
